And her boyfriend though he loved her
Knew he couldn't quite fulfill
He could never meet her there

She's never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there's something more
No matter what it takes, no matter how she breaks
She'll be the queen of Hollywood

And the cynics they will wonder
What's the difference with this dream?
And the dreams of countless others
All believing in TV
They see their hand prints in a sidewalk
Flashing cameras on the scene
And a shining Limousine

She's never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there's something more
No matter what it takes, no matter how she breaks
She'll be the queen of Hollywood

She's believing in a dream
Queen of Hollywood
It's a loaded fantasy

Now her mother collects cutouts
And the pictures make her smile
But if she saw behind the curtains
It could only make her cry
She's got hand prints on her body
Sad moonbeams in her eyes
Not so innocent a child

She's never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there's something more
No matter what it takes, no matter how she breaks
She'll be the queen of Hollywood

No she's never gonna be like the one before
She read it in her stars that there's something more
No matter what it takes and even though she breaks
She'll be the queen of Hollywood
She is the queen of Hollywood
Queen of Hollywood
And friends still talk at the corners

She's the queen of Hollywood
She's the queen of Hollywood
